Mismatches with the value defined here in sunxi-common.h, sunxi-common.h
lists all other spl memory addresses right in this block, making it
possible to quickly see what goes there. If someone ever decides to tweak
the layout, then they will likely forget the single value which is set
in the defconfig-s, but they will (presumably) update the copy in
sunxi-common.h, as that is sitting there right next to the others.

If this happens then the compiler will give a warning (for each C-file)
that CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R_ADDR is being redefined.

So functionality wise this does nothing, leaving it out will result
in an identical build. It is just there to help us poor humans to
not forger to update the value in the defconfig files if we ever
decide to tweak the SPL memory layout.

Regards,

Hans
